S. Sudan’s Kiir installs unwanted new Ruweng governor

April 3, 2017 (JUBA) – South Sudan President Salva Kiir Monday has installed a new governor in Ruweng State, a state in the Greater Upper Nile region allocated to the SPLM-IO in a power-sharing deal with the former rebel turned First Vice President, Taban Deng Gai.

Governor Them Machar Kuol has been sworn in by President Salva Kiir at a ceremony at the presidency of the republic in Juba, despite a massive support for the former Governor Theje Adwad Deng who was relieved after his defection of the SPLM-IO.

Governor Kuol who has been rejected by the Dinka people of Ruweng was appointed to replace Adwad Deng. The Ruweng community sent a letter to President Kiir requesting to halt the swearing in of the new governor, amid threats to resort to violence.

“The newly appointed Governor of Ruweng state Hon. Them Machar Kuol was sworn in at the State House in Juba today before President Salva Kiir Mayardit. The swearing-in ceremony was attended by the First Vice President Taban Deng Gai and was presided over of Justice John Gatwich, the Deputy Chief Justice,” said a statement issued by the office of President Kiir on Monday evening.

The statement did not allude to the Ruweng community’s opposition to the new governor but mentioned an appeal by President Kiir “for unity among the community.”

“In his remarks after the swearing in of the governor, President Kiir appealed to the newly appointed governor to work and cooperate with the community members in the state. President Kiir called on the Governor to have a dialogue with the people in a peaceful manner in order to find a solution in the state,” the statement added.

The statement further added that Gai believes the appointment of Governor Them would unite the Dinka people in Ruweng to live peacefully with their neighbours.

Kiir and Taban are the number one enemies of South Sudanese people. The sworn in Of Ustaz Them Michar as Rs governor is unconstitutional insult to people of Ruweng state. Pleasing Taban’s demands rather than pleasing the state populace will is something that the leaders are yet to answer if there were an independent judiciary in place for this case to be look at in legal prospective. Shame to Kii

This is Collaboration agaist the people of Ruweng State and Ruweng people must stand afirm agaist this eneemies,the people of Ruweng do not accept this Traitor Governor who sell out the land to Taban of position and he will remain in Juba to work with father.

Now you said the case is closed" because you lost the demand that you are supporting. Everybody is equal regardless whether ones is a rebel or not. Chances is for everyone too. Them Machar Kuol was a Dinka from Panaruu and he was a rebel from Panaruu. I don,t see why you neglected him. panaruu people bear in mind that this State so called Ruweng will not exist in the long run. Quote me right.

DHARCHEP,
Which case have I lost? You celebrating this, because you’re a rebel. "I said the case is closed" yes people of Ruweng state are for the implementation his (Taban) agendas. Wanh- De’ Daniel, Yaar and rest of their land is a RED-LINE! They know their neighbors listens in their "assess" like you DHARCHEP. Lets see who’s a robots this time.

Kush, why do you said "let see the outcome" and you Dinka Panaruu were threating Salva Kiir Miyardit that you will wage the war against him? Lie is not good at all. It was Salva Kiir Miyardit who created Ruweng State when the Ruweng Community paramount Chief SIMON BOL MAYIIK from Biemnom when to Salva Kiir Miyardti for the seek to create Ruweng.

I am glad that the Dinka Ruweng Community of Biemnom are maintaining their silences. We Dinka Ruweng people of Biemnom we are respecting Salva Kiir Miyardit. Even if Salva Kiir Miyardit said that he is going to bring Omar El Bashir,to be a governor of Ruweng State, we will still come down because we are not a greedy community. "Patience is important"

Ater, fuck you son of bastard or wedlock person. I am a pure native Ruweng from Mijuan clan. I am from fake Panaruu who called themselves Ruweng while the are from Panaruu. Fuck you with all you friends from Panaruu. I am native son Dinka Ruweng community of Biemnom.

Dinka Panrieng, don,t make noises against the vice president Ley Nyakek Lam, now we shall be extending our farm in Manga to Nyiel up to Tor junction, where will you go? the president has chosen the governor and the vice president has given his recommendation so what?
Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saddam,
Only that you dont feel the pinch of being fucked up,This time around we will start with Nuer residing in Panrieng. Tell me where in Jekenyland will you find panaruu. Dont take our compassionate heart as point of our weaknss.I know where civil population in former Guit county are hiding from the threat of regime of Salva Kiir but never and never shall we as panaruu youth take advantage

cont
of this regime to destroy you simply because doing so will not make us great or make us winners but destroyers which is the worst human attributes.Some south Sudanese murder their own citizens just because sex is free.killed to replace it with another.Women are getting tired of being used by men specially in nuerland.

...and for those who think that Them will bring peace in Ruweng. That is not going to happen, unfortunately. If Them tries to implement any of Taban demands, he will get his ass kicked pretty quick and if he insists on retaining the position, he will, forever, regret losing his political career. Apparently, there are some thieves in Ruweng waiting to be appointed by them as officials.

Them must not be allowed to lay off anyone in the State, for if he is allowed, he will employ Nuer in Jieng coats or some thieves who have no ethics and can go in bed with Taban whenever Taban demand political intercourse!

Western Panaruu must not allow anyone to sell their land to Nuer or Nuer in Jieng coats! Doig so will be great betrayal of the people who fought so hard during the 80s-90s war

After the Dinka savages finish the rest of other tribes as they often think, it will not be a surprise that they will go onto each other’s throats to kill each other big time as I always believe the last war in South Sudan will be between Dinka savages themselves.

If Taban and Them misbehave in Ruweng state, I swear to God, we will fight them to death. And I want to sound strong warning to people who brag about war! We fought Nuer with no help from 1991-1997 with no help from anyone. So, never try to mess with us, or else we bring our dicks to fuck anyone who disobey the Ruweng Dinka! we will fight to the last man! Take it seriously.

Who is this asshole called DharChep? I don’t think he is from Ruweng Alor? If there is a possibility he does,then may be a rap consequence’s child from 1991 by the worst Traitor of all time Riek Machar Soldiers or by Bagarra(Arab) when they chased Alor away from their lands in 1980s. This is why he don’t know the history of Ruweng People.
